This is sweet. Sense is starting to nag me. D'loading now.

My "DU3L C0R3 SH00T3R" shot you down in 3D! -Security Off-
[HTC EVO 3D] hypersonicx:
CRT Animation?
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:
might want to get a better host 2 hour download is crazy and im sure it will get hammered
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Cool!

Nope

I just tried downloading... I am getting over 300K with about 12 minutes remaining... Thats not great, I know but... Its not two hours.

If you want me to have better hosting hit the Donate button :)
[HTC EVO 3D] evohog:
Just downloaded from ppc and took 9 minutes. Its quick and stable. Reminds me of my nexus so its a damn good senseless Rom. 3100 in quadrant and I have 488megs of ram free. No crt yet.
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:
downloaded it will load it up on my lunch :D
[HTC EVO 3D] r0cky0790:
This is nice and it definitely feeds my aosp appetite. By the way using it with SBC kernel. Good sh*t OP.

My "DU3L C0R3 SH00T3R" shot you down in 3D! -Security Off-
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention I ported most of it form teh nexus S 4G. What I could anyways. Then some of the apps, Keyboard and Launcher are from Modaco. I tried the Nexus S keyb but it was all shrunkand the Nexus S launhcer was off center in the app drawer so I had to use as close as replacements as possible.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Thats what I was trying to replicate. I still cant get the phone, contacts and messaging correct... I think it will be harder than the initial changes I made.
[HTC EVO 3D] evohog:
Lvin it. Satisfies my AOSP urges. great job man!
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Good Deal!

EDIT: ****! Nearly 50 downloads in less than the first hour at 2:30AM? I guess I am not the only one who burns the midnight oil! lol
[HTC EVO 3D] r0cky0790:
Its been months since we lived like this. Just lets us get it out are systems and you **** back and take all the credit for are happiness. :)

[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
Us lurkers remain hidden from daylight.

Appreciate my help? Thank me :D
[HTC EVO 3D] hockeyfamily737:
Oh yeah!!! A 259MB zip before I even open it up. We're getting there! Thanks a lot for this treat.
[HTC EVO 3D] M5Rahul:
Gonna try this in a bit... [ yes I can't sleep :p ]

What Kernel to use with this ?

Running ViperROM RC1.2 with Netarchy Test5 right now...

Thanks!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] poweroutlet:
3100 huh? What is your CPU set to?
[HTC EVO 3D] dwntwnall4u:
Flashing right now!!

edit: This ROM is exactly what I like. Super clean with the AOSP feel. Thank You.

edit2: OK, I just ran a Vellamo test and for some reason it scores only a 675 which is worse than a stock 3VO? How is this possible?
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
Another one to add to the pile to flash! : )

Thanks for this!
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Fixed now...

Good to know...

Yeah, I see. Makes sense. I have been troubleshooting using the Exchange account you made for me. I got it all figured out know. Thanks alot for doing that.

Not, its the Steven Lin version. You can find it on the market. Couldnt find a qHD ver.

Its all good! lol

Let us know and I will add it.

I got it all figured out... What a mess Sense makes of things!

Your welcome!
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Just an update....

I have the MMS, Exchange and Ringtone setting issues fixed.

I need to make some final adjustments and I will post it late tonight.

Obviously fixing those things brought back some unwanted Sense items... So... I need to figure out what to pull again. Shouldnt be more than a couple flashes and an upload.

Thanks for all the feed back from everyone. I really wasnt sure this project would take off and posted it as more of a proof of concept. But because of all of the positive feedback I will continue this project as a full blown ROM, making updates, continue to research little bugs, etc...

Thanks,

-Scott
[HTC EVO 3D] t3project:
did you get the "personalize" and "htc software" update removed from the settings?
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Nope, I need someone who knows how to hack APK's to do that. Everytime I mess with settings.APK the ROM wont boot.

I need some help with this one.

All in all its a minor inconvenience. More aesthetics than anything. Im sure the collective will help get it figured out.

Like I said before.. Anyone who can help change these little things please chime in! I am open to try fixes.
[HTC EVO 3D] t3project:
i'll take a look at it and see what i can do.
[HTC EVO 3D] nebj00la:
Excellent, I look forward to the update. This is a great ROM! I was surprised when I saw the Exchange account issue :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Yeah, I got rip happy. But I got it fixed now.

Sense is a whore!
[HTC EVO 3D] t3project:
found the menu items to remove, just have to find their dependencies and it should be good to go.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
If you can remove "System updates" entirely. It will only cause issues with the ROM if you donwload a firmware update over top this. Ya know?

and change any sense icon you can. When I tried to do that it would just crash the OS. But it did let me port most of them from Nexus S.
[HTC EVO 3D] t3project:
im working on it
[HTC EVO 3D] e_town:
Great job Scott. Glad I could help w/ the exahcnge side of things. No "big ticket" open items to fix? I'll probably jump over to this tomorrow AM and have another low productivity morning at work ;)

Going to upload / update the changelog tonight then?
[HTC EVO 3D] logicMASS:
Thank you for this senselessness.

sense was fun for a week. hated having all that extra crap. nothing like the taste of vanilla
[HTC EVO 3D] drivenapollo:
Running great so far. Looking forward to the update. Thanks for the hard work.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Cool!

Only other bit ticket items to fix is the Lock screen hiding the dialer on incoming call. You can hear the ring and all but you need to unlock the lock screen to see the Ignore / Answer button and caller ID. Not a huge deal. But... I would like to work on that. That wil be for ver 1.2 or later. Right now I wanted to get the majors out of the way... MMS, Exchange and Ringtones. And I ahve done this so I am hoping to upload tonight. I am runing a stable version now but a couple sense items snuck back in. If I can get those out then yes for sure. No ETA though.

Thanks again for the exchange account. Keep it open though... Until at least tomorrow. I will email to shut it down.

No doubt!

Thank you!
[HTC EVO 3D] eboogie33:
if its already been mentioned disregard just flashed with cwm and settings is not missing . i repeat i do have the settings apk and its working fine . By the way great job !!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Yeah, the very first release was the issue. I heard later releases work fine now. Do you know what ver you have so I can update the OP?
[HTC EVO 3D] eboogie33:
the version that was bundled with revolutionary cmw v4.0.1.4
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
It wasn't "bundled" per se. It was an additional download that took place at the time of installation. I beleive the original version at that time was either 4.0.0.1 or 4.0.0.0.

I could be wrong about version numbers but I am sure that it was not bundled and it was a download.
[HTC EVO 3D] eboogie33:
bundled or additional lol all im doing is telling you which recovery i have could have been additional idk tho
[HTC EVO 3D] acidulousreality:
Thanks so much for this rom i was geting so tired of sense! I need exchange working but if thats only a couple days away i'd rather have a senseless phone with no email or contacts ;-D
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Its a couple hours away... Flashing final build now (hopefully).
[HTC EVO 3D] t3project:
hey, what fix did you use for the settings fc when changing ringtones?
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
I got your PM....

Hahahah! Not telling!

LINK SOON
[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
Patiently waiting for the link thanks man.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
About 5 more minutes....
[HTC EVO 3D] dblock3nine:
Just in time, I just got home and now I have something to do :-).. Thanks for the hard work, can't wait to install rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] nkd:
Link says no file to download. Is it not Up yet?
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
LINKS UP!

Let the beatings begin!​
[HTC EVO 3D] nkd:
Thank you gonna give this a shot. I haven't tried senseless room for a while.
[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
In theory does this Rom run faster than the rest since it is stripped of most of sense?
[HTC EVO 3D] nkd:
Not necessarily but it should be better on battery and system resources. Yes overall it technically should be faster.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Yes!

It is faster than some other ROMS. All depends on the ROM being compared to. Its notably faster than stock because there are performance tweak that enable some hardware video acceleration.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Can you guys tell me what kernel you like best? I would like to start testing kernel performance and see what we can really make this thing do!
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
If you are going to mirror my ROM please provide a DIRECT DOWNLOAD LINK so I can track hits via my website. Please do not mirror if you cannot provide DIRECT DOWNLOAD LINKS! Just like EVERY Developer on this forum, I dont get paid (this is a hobby not a job) other than a few very appreciated donations! My true joy in developing ROMS is watching the hit counter go up! I am sure you can understand that!​

THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL WHO HAVE DONATED!​
[HTC EVO 3D] nkd:
Is there a reason for double gps icon on top, one always stays there and another one pops up when I launch maps. I am just wondering, not too worried about it, but kinda awkward to have two gps icons next to each other.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Yeah, thats a fix for later. I just ported the framework from Nexus S so maybe something doesn't line up just perfect. I'll add that to the known issues list. Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] dblock3nine:
I like Silverneedle kernel so far out of the rest.
[HTC EVO 3D] nkd:
No worries, glad to be of any help.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Yeah, I was leaning that way too. Might give it a spin now!

EDIT: Yep, thats fast ;c) I clocked it out to max and set it to performance. I went from 2400+ Quadrant score to 2900+

When I am leaving it on "On Demand" It tanks though?

Anyone else got any suggestions? I wanna break 3000!
[HTC EVO 3D] dblock3nine:
Have you tried klquicksall's kernel (RCMIX EVO 3D), suppose to OC to 2.0MHz. I'm sure with that type of speed you will get 3000 with ease lol. Only thing is not everyone was stable pass 1.7 MHz with that kernel but you never know.

Edit: As soon as my download of the ROM finishes (34 mins:( ) I going to give ms79723's SBC kernel a try.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Nah, I will wait till it gets stable! lol

I am uploading to another mirror now...

Sorry about the slow downloads!
[HTC EVO 3D] eboogie33:
hey scrosler got one problem after not being able to mms i flashed my stock back up

and still cant send mms what do you suggest
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Changed hosts...

Went from 180K per sec on my own web hosts to 1.8 megs on new host...

Hope I dont piss off anyone on PPCG!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Are you saying you cant send MMS with Senseless 1.1?

I think something is screwed up with Sprint right now because I cant send MMS on any phone I have.
[HTC EVO 3D] dblock3nine:
Cool, I don't mind the wait anyways. This ROM looks like my daily driver, by the way donation sent your way for the great work.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Thanks man! Greatly appreciated!
[HTC EVO 3D] eboogie33:
naw haven't downloaded that yet after no being able to mms on your last release i went back to my stock back up now i cant send mms on my back up either do you think its somehow related?

just saw you said you couldn't send mms either maybe thats da problem (sprint)

can someone else try to send mms and corfirm
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
No, I can tell you for certain its not related. The nandeoid back up is goigng to repalce the entire images on the phone. My ROM would get blown away.

Are you having the issue right now?

When I tries to send from my Optimus I am getting "Message Expired or Not Available"
[HTC EVO 3D] eboogie33:
thanks for the quick reply yes im issue having the issue right now my stock back up lol

crazy night
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
I went to the sprint picture mail site and its down: http://pictures.sprintpcs.com/

I am pretty sure thats the reason....

Yep, tried from three different devices now and cant send MMS. Its a Sprint issue. Phewwwww......
[HTC EVO 3D] Cal3b:
one thing you could do is remove all the sense weather animations that we arent using. there is 53.2mb of weather stuff in system/media/weather
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Good catch! Thats like 1/4 of the ROM!!!!!! ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] eboogie33:
just hit the thanks button you went far and beyond the call of duty for me tonight i will get 1.1 tomorrow going to bed good night
[HTC EVO 3D] monkeybone12:
I second that. I have friends that liked the ring. Agile is pretty darn close!

Sent from MIUI'ed Nookie Color! Love the Nookie!
[HTC EVO 3D] drivenapollo:
;) Good idea
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
MMS Is back up now... Just tested it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Stegobits:
I really need to get some work done, but then again I really need to flash this too. Guess flashing wins! Thanks scrosler! :p
[HTC EVO 3D] dwntwnall4u:
Downloaded and flashed 1.1 but now it says not enough disk space for alot of my apps? Internal storage says 1GB of space though. Sd card has 2GB of space.

Any ideas why is this happening?
[HTC EVO 3D] hockeyfamily737:
Another place I was able to dump some weight was /system/customize/resource. I emptied all of the jpg's & the boot & down animations.

sent from my...click, click boom
[HTC EVO 3D] JAdderly:
First let me start by saying I dig this Rom and I see others trying to duplicate what you accomplished without giving credit.

Can you make a zip of the mms fix cuz I have most of the other fixes already plus a custom red status bar. I know I can just use titanium but was being lazy.
[HTC EVO 3D] ozzie1p:
Absolutely great job with this. Best of both worlds!
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Flashing should always win! :D

More info... Did you factory reset before install? Trying clearing cache of Market. All my downloads were fine.

Good deal. I will remember that for next iteration!

I could try to make a flashable zip with the MMS fix but it wont apply. You wont believe what controlled the MMS. Its something in the HTC Set up wizard that occurs on very first boot. Now before you say I am crazy.... I tested and rested MANY times to prove this theory. Thats why I had to put it back in the ROM. Also to get the HTC Set Up Wizard to work.... you MUST have the HTC Keyboard!!! Thats why that is back in the ROM! Tested and retested! Tell me HTC didn't wrap all this together tightly!

Thank you!
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
Does this ROM retain the HTC Dialer and HTC Contacts?
[HTC EVO 3D] ricocollege:
I did a wipe and fresh install of 1.1.

everything is working good.

Loving this ROM, thank you for all your great work.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Unfortunately yes.... Any help stripping it on down would be appreciated. I am going to be trying to improve upon this though... Like I said, if you know how to remove please post.

Your welcome! Glad you enjoy!
[HTC EVO 3D] joshk89:
Butter
[HTC EVO 3D] htabbach:
Can we flash any custom kernels with this ROM? and if yes, which one you would recommend with OC?
[HTC EVO 3D] ffolkes:
I'm having a lot of issues with the Market on this ROM, it keeps locking at "Starting Download..." and I have to go into settings and manually force close it, start Market again, and try again.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Indeed!

You can flash any kernel you desire but be warned... I have ONLY tried SilverNeedle test5 and it was ONLY for a short period for time. It did however work as expected. I was using SetCPU with the governor set to "On Demand" and I LOST a bit of performance. When I set the governor to "Performance" it hauls ass! I clocked it out to 1.8GHZ and its SMOKIN!

I have no clue. I do not have this issue and have downloaded a bunch from the market apps already... Try this... Go to settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All Applications -> Market -> Clear Cache and Clear Data. Reboot phone. Try again. Other than that market has worked fine for me. No issues at all on my side.
[HTC EVO 3D] benjimatt:
Hey I noticed you didnt include the google talk video and was wondering if that would be in your next release? I installed it either way just wondering.

Also taking out the weather pictures like one of the other members listed and that other folder with boot jpgs almost brings the zip file down to 200mb :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
I just wanted to get this out as quick as possible to fix the major bugs :o I owed that much to everyone who tried the ROM!

I planned to start making refinements next, such as google talk, UI clean up, etc. This will also include cleaning up extra png and jpg files.

Thanks for the feedback.
[HTC EVO 3D] yoooooon:
hey guys,

great, great rom. exactly what i was hoping for (not a fan of teh sense.)

anyhoos, i noticed that i'm getting a double lockscreen issue when i use pattern unlock (it makes me slide unlock then pattern unlock).

is it just me?
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Nope, thats not just you. Thats part of the lock screen issue we have when you rip the sense lock out of the ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] Sovvy:
Amazing rom man. One feature I'd like is battery percent in notification bar.

Can't think of anything else, ROMs beyond great. Battery performance is top game man!
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
Its funny that you say unfortunately, I actually really like HTC's dialer and I figure if the contacts is included then I can still use the fb integration.

tapa tapa tapa
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
I would consider that for a future release. Thats a reasonable request.

One mans pain in the butt is another mans pride and joy! :D

But my goal is to get that out of there....
[HTC EVO 3D] jajuan:
Thanks for the ROM! It's great
[HTC EVO 3D] joehunni:
Would this be odex or deodexed?
[HTC EVO 3D] mitchellvii:
Love this rom. Thanks :)

FOR THOSE LOOKING FOR GOOD DIALER/CONTACT MANAGER:

Try Go Contacts Ex. It is very cool, has great graphical interface, is fast and free.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jbapps.contactpro&feature=search_result
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Good deal!

De-odexed
[HTC EVO 3D] Bigirish:
So, I'm attempting to download the ROM, but all I'm getting is pages and pages of crazy symbols and jumbled text. Getting it when I click the d/l link here AND on PPCGeeks. Anyone got a mirror I can grab it from?
[HTC EVO 3D] Milly7:
Same thing happened to me using firefox.... When I tried using internet explorer it downloaded just fine.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bigirish:
Odd, but I'll try it! Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
What you are seeing is the binary file on the screen. If using FireFox...I believe it is right click on the mouse if using computer dl it. Files are getting so big...I am using laptop to dl them. A great add on for FireFox I use is 'download them all'.
[HTC EVO 3D] joshk89:
There's a flashable zip on shooter rewind page 106 for crt on and off. Go get it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Fire fox sucks guys.... Go Chrome! :D But if you must download with FireFox right click and select save as (or the equivalent) like Life64 said.... Dont use IE! lol
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Did you test it and it works or are you just advertising another ROM in my thread?
[HTC EVO 3D] housry23:
Chrome FTW! I was a huge Firefox guy, but ever since Chrome added support for extensions which are like FF add-ons I haven't looked back. I have tried the latest builds of FF, but always return to Chrome.

Great Rom scrosler. Been using it since you updated and this thing is very good. If anyone uses ADW or ADW EX there is a really nice Gingerbread theme by kovdev that is free in the market which will still allow you the AOSP look, but with some nice customizations like 5 icons in the dock and some decent wallpapers. It also gives you more stock icons to complete the GB look. Just a suggestion, if you don't like it you can always go back to the included launcher.
[HTC EVO 3D] joshk89:
Lol no I'm on senseless and I have that crt running right now, goes great with the rom and wanted to share but I'm at work and can't link stuff
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Good to know! Thanks man!
[HTC EVO 3D] iwould4adollar:
Love it so far!

Man I love this rom, seriously. I was just wondering if you had any plans on putting the media volume and brightness settings in the drop down bar like I saw in another rom. I'm still using your rom daily so not a deal breaker, but that was SUPER convenient for me. Keep up the great work and thanks! :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Hmmm What ROM does this? I will consider it....
[HTC EVO 3D] iwould4adollar:
That would be awsome

I'm pretty sure it was MIKrom V0.9 "Chogardjr3D-v0.9-signed"
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Thanks, I will consider that for the next release!
[HTC EVO 3D] JAdderly:
Get the zip from the naked Rom. I have the settings on mine from the zip
[HTC EVO 3D] JAdderly:
Wow I didn't notice to just now they have trace (swype) built into the HTC keyboard. So glad you put the keyboard backinto the ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Hey can you do me a HUGE favor and tell me what all packages MMS is linked to? I'm having the same problems you did with the MMS not working. Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Shooter Rewind.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
PM me........
[HTC EVO 3D] EniGmA1987:
Most of my stuff from the market installed fine with this ROM, but some of the stuff is giving an "insufficient space" error :/ And yes I have plenty of space left.

VERY fast ROM though. Really quick at booting too :)
